Backup 2003 server / restore

[hookechoes]

Hello,

My evaluation copy runs out this weekend, so I bought a retail copy of 2003 server R2.

I did a full system backup of the drive.

My question is if can I install the new retail copy and then do a restore of the bacup and be back where I was?

Thanks a bunch for any help!

Just do a reinstall on top of the existing install and you should be able to keep your existing settings and data.

I hope you find this post helpful.

Regards,

Mark
